Fresh off the heels of controversy over a textbook publisher referring to slavery as “immigration” and slaves as “workers,” comes another case of racial insensitivity.

Ida Lockett, of Sacramento, California, said her 5-year-old son recently received a toy Playmobil Pirate Ship as a gift that came complete with a figurine resembling an African-American slave and instructions to place it in a neck shackle, reports The Washington Post:

The toy’s instruction manual shows a dark-skinned doll wearing no shoes, ripped pants and a tattered yellow shirt and directs the assembler to pop the silver piece around its neck. The ship appears to include a dungeon.

“It’s definitely racist,” Lockett told the CBS affiliate. “It told my son to put a slave cuff around the black character’s neck, and then to play with the toy.”

Lockett said the set was a gift from the boy’s aunt, who purchased it from Toys R Us. The set retails for $89.99 but the store is selling it for $62.99.

In a statement to the Washington Post, Playmobil said the toy was “intended to portray life on a 17th-century pirate ship.”

“If you look at the box, you can see that the pirate figure is clearly a crew member on the pirate ship and not a captive,” according to the statement. “The figure was meant to represent a pirate who was a former slave in a historical context. It was not our intention to offend anyone in anyway.”
